past day or two feeling a little full down there....and having sporadic cramping...nothing super painful...just more like annoying some in my lower belly and some of it is in my legs..having some BH here and there but just the norm of what i have always had....i think every little thing makes me nervous....was just at doc two days ago and my cervix was tight and closed and things looked FINE!   

did you all start to feel these things as you got into the 3rd trimester??

    I had painful ctx all.the.time in 3rd tri! I got really sick of it near the end. My OB and MFM both said not to worry/call unless they became regular for an hour or more (that was once I was past 34 wks). There were a lot of times that I got out my timer to time them, and they turned into nothing. There were quite a few times that I'd get them every 3-4 min for 30-45 minutes, then they would stop just like that.

    It's just your uterus getting ready! My OB said that your uterus cannot differentiate b/w 1 baby or 2, so if you're measuring, say 37 cm at 28 wks, then your uterus thinks your 37 wks pg. Hang in there :)

    i have felt weird on and off since 25 weeks....i had to wear the support belt at the end of the 2nd trimester/beginning of the third, now i dont have to, it's weird!

    your worrying feelings are totally normal and sound familar. i didnt relax until i passed 32 weeks....and didnt really relax until i passed 34 (which was over the weekend!)
